The story
On September 11, 2026, Juice=Juice, NiziU, and FRUITS ZIPPER appeared together on TBS’s music special “CDTV Live! Live! Autumn Thanksgiving Festival 2026,” and the live commentary thread on 5ch’s Hello! Project board lit up as fans watched the broadcast in real time. The show featured collaborative stages and segments where idols descended into the audience, with viewers tracking the setlist and running order in minute detail. What really got people talking was the difference in how loudly each act’s fans called out from the crowd — one comment noting “the crowd’s energy is night and day compared to when Juice=Juice was on” drew pushback like “that’s just a difference in fanbase,” sparking the kind of back-and-forth only a live thread can produce.

does that look right?
They came in through the audience for 'Pride Bright'
Thought there was an unfamiliar song in there —
guess it's listed because only Ishiyama was part of it
That's because Juice=Juice still hasn't fully become TV-ready talents
No wonder it's blowing up online
Not the kind of crowd that's there to enjoy the music live
Same as back when they were spamming the ℃-ute threads nonstop
Background and Discussion Points
“CDTV Live! Live!” is a long-running TBS music special series where multiple artists perform their own songs alongside collaborative stages, a format that’s become standard for the show. Opinion in the thread split over how to interpret the difference in crowd energy — some argued “the excitement level was on a whole different scale,” while others countered it came down to “a difference in fanbase.” Hello! Project groups have a long history of cultivating call-and-response culture at their shows, but stages where filming is permitted tend to draw crowds more focused on recording clips and spreading them on social media, so the gap in visible excitement can’t be chalked up to popularity alone. Several posts also pointed out apparent lip-syncing, though it’s worth noting that the actual sound setup can’t be confirmed from forum comments alone.
